Update! The Pokers will ship and leave Taiwan on the 20th. That means you can probably expect yours around the first week of July at the latest!

Guess I'm a bit late. Are there any thoughts about another group buy in the near future?

Where can I order one on my own?

There will be another group buy once this is done. It will be for a lower quantity (probably 20 or 40). In the meantime you can try to import one directly. Though, it will come in quite costy.

Yay! My cunning plan of forgetting that I ordered a few Pokers has worked for me perfectly. It hasn't felt like a long wait at all so far.. but it sure will for the next month or so.

Dear Sixty,

I may need to change my shipping address due to my travel plans (leaving my current address for four months and staying in good ol' Sydney, Australia) - please let me know how I can organise this - I will of course pay the extra shipping charges (which hopefully won't be exorbitant).

Cheers,

dracaXL

Still no updates? Getting a bit worried here, since they would ship them the 20th :/
Does'nt really matter when I get it, just that I get what I payed for :)

It's been 12 days. Not a particularly long space of time for something that may be on a container ship. Everybody chill the fuck out.

no dude they are worried about the fact, that Sixty has no notice of it being shipped out at all..
we all know containership takes a looong time. But i think this is via airmail..
why? 20th shipping out, arrives 4-7 days.. QC and ship them out.And they arrrive the first week of july.. <-- pure speculation about the info we got from sixty.

Sorry guys, currently extremely busy.

Hello,

As it's supposed to be shipped today and it's summer time, I would like to get some timelines if possible to organize myself.

Cheers :)

I still have very limited online time, but of course I will keep you guys updated as I receive news from the VorTex guys. Sadly I have still not received any news, since my last update. I have also been in contact with iMav who is doing the American distribution for geekhack. He is in the same situation and also did not receive any further news yet, so it seems the delays are global.

With the Pokers already popping up on eBay last month and arriving all around the world before we got ours, its no surprise that I am a little bit disappointed with our "exclusive distribution" here :( I am not sure if a second group buy will happen yet.

As before, I'll try to get online and keep you guys updated as soon as I have any news. Lets hang in here together.

If it was prepaid and then they put the group buyers at the end of the queue I wouldn't do a second group buy. It's as simple as that. Note that the publicity generated by the group buys produced the buyers for eBay now.
